Profile:
Only a few have made a hundred on debut in a Test match on foreign soil
and for many it is a dream come true. Praveen Amre is one those rare
breed of players who achieved this by making 103 against South Africa at
Durban in 1992-93 under difficult conditions, for a struggling side and
against an attack that included Donald, Pringle and McMillan. But then
what more can one expect from a stylish right hander who hails from the
'Achrekar family' - a coach who has had players like Sachin Tendulkar
and Vinod Kambli under his tutelage. Amre played just two seasons between 1992-94 before being dropped unceremoniously.
Amre first represented Bombay for just a season in the Ranji Trophy in
1986-87 before moving to Railways, Rajasthan and Bengal in turn. He was
a prolific scorer in domestic cricket. His 246 for Rest of India against
Bengal is still the highest by any bastman in the Irani Trophy. He has
also scored runs aplenty along with a series of tall scores in the
Duleep and Ranji Trophy, proving that he is a player best suited for the
longer version of the game, displaying grit, temperament and
determination. He was at his most prolific in the 1989-90 Duleep Trophy
when he had scores of 106, 240 not out and 113 in the three matches he
played. In the 1999-00 season Amre played in the South African domestic
circuit representing Boland and had an impressive record. Several people
wanted to know why he was not in the Indian team. ``All I could tell
them was that I gave it my best shot each time. The rest was not in my
hands". Surely he has answered to some questions as to why he did not
represent India again. Another case of cricketing talent that was nipped
in the bud. (AC Ganesh)
